Join hosts Nancy Kahn and Timothy Regan in a conversation inviting listeners to connect to the power within to create a world that works for all of us. During uncertain political times, we have choice around how we focus our energy and efforts. We can focus on the deficit of unmet needs and we can also call in vision, hope and take nonviolent action. Nonviolent action is a powerful choice and can lead to transformative movements after others have chosen tragic expressions of unmet needs such as violent speech and violent actions.

In this first episode of 2021, we seem to have had knowledge of what was to come in our nation’s Capital just 3 days later.
Host Timothy Regan welcomed two active, skilled, and devoted people from the DC Peace Team, based in Washington DC: Eli McCarthy and Heather Thompson.
We bring you a glimpse of the wisdom, and power, and action of nonviolent peacemakers, part of a global tradition and current movement across the United States and the world. We explore the grit of peacemaking on the street and the healing that can happen in the restorative justice circle.
What they have to offer is timely, relevant, and life-saving.
